“Stopped here for brunch during a bike ride. Delicious, healthy food, great service, and a lovely lake view with ducks. Definitely recommend!”

Appropriate minimalist interior. Located in the sole remnant of the original 1970’s Brutalist conception, clamped to the northern shoreline over Southmere Lake The coffee was good - not too bitter, just the way I like it. I wasn’t hungry. The staff were welcoming, obliging and efficient. An uncompromising view over the lake: a panorama that gives no quarter to sentiment nor regret. Now authentic we like, wouldn’t have it any other way. And found it here. Recommended.

Super welcoming cafe with incredible wraps, soups, and coffee. The roasted red pepper halloumi wrap is delectable and affordable. Very friendly staff and great views of the lake and surrounding wildlife.

Made discovery of this place today and to my surprise the ceasar salad was the best I’ve had in London. They also do decaf coffee. Very affordable place with good food Smiley and service minded staff Would be six stars if there was such Will be coming now more often
